Erratum to: Environ Sci Eur (2017) 29:1 DOI 10.1186/s12302‐016‐0099‐0 Upon publication of the original article [1], the authors noticed that the number of the event mentioned in the first sentence of the article was incorrect. Instead of: MON89788, the correct number is: MON87701 and therefore the first sentence of the article should read:

Possible health impacts of Bt toxins and residues from spraying with complementary herbicides in genetically engineered soybeans and risk assessment as performed by the European Food Safety Authority EFSA
BACKGROUND MON89788 was the first genetically engineered soybean worldwide to express a Bt toxin. Under the brand name Intacta, Monsanto subsequently engineered a stacked trait soybean using MON89788 and MON87701-this stacked soybean expresses an insecticidal toxin and is, in addition, tolerant to glyphosate. After undergoing risk assessment by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the sta...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model of Exposure of Non-target Lepidoptera to Bt-Maize Pollen Expressing Cry1Ab
Joe N. Perry Background Public acceptance of genetically-engineered plants is weaker within Europe than in North America. Currently, maize MON810 is the only GE crop that is cultivated widely in the European Union (EU), having been authorized in 1998 and grown since 2003, mainly in Spain. Reflecting societal demands, regulation of plant biotechnology is more stringent in the EU than in most oth...
متن کاملDirect Analysis of Glyphosate and Similar Polar Pesticides in Oatmeal by UHPLC-MS/MS
Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine), an organophosphorus compound, is used to kill weeds (e.g. annual broadleaf weeds and grasses) that compete with crops. Since its introduction to market approximately 40 years ago, glyphosate has become one of the world’s most widely used herbicides due to its relatively low toxicity in comparison with other herbicides towards mammals. The adoption of gl...
متن کاملNutrient Interaction and Health Risk Assessment of Cereal Grains on Nigerian’s Markets
Background: Cereals are the most staple foods in human diet and the main components of the daily diet. This work was designed to determine the level of essential and non-essential elements, the in vitro bioavailability, interrelationship, and associated health risk in consumed cereal grains in Nigeria to assess their safety and wholesomeness. Methods: The contents of phytate, oxalate, and some...
متن کاملImpacts of genetically engineered crops on pesticide use in the U.S. – the first sixteen years
Background: Genetically engineered, herbicide-resistant and insect-resistant crops have been remarkable commercial successes in the United States. Few independent studies have calculated their impacts on pesticide use per hectare or overall pesticide use, or taken into account the impact of rapidly spreading glyphosate-resistant weeds. A model was developed to quantify by crop and year the impa...
